Description Mattias Eriksson 2002-11-25 17:25:59 UTC 
There is one feature that will keep me using xine until it's implemented in
gstreamer: integrated support for TV-out. 

The use of nvtvd makes the life for us TV-addicts so much easier and is the
kind of feature that just rocks!

Neat feature suggestion (as I have a NVidia card myself). However as
most of the GStreamer hackers are focusing on portability and
stability issues atm I do not think this plugin will get made before
sometime next summer earliest unless someone provides a patch with it.

Ok, Sean you are now officially assigned this feature request.
Comment 3 Mattias Eriksson 2003-02-05 11:30:48 UTC 
I have done some playing around with tvmode in xine and I don't think
it should be a separate plugin in Gstreamer. 
What is done in xine is to toggle fullscren, toggle nvtv to show the
contents of the fullscreen (the fullscreen is adjusted to fit the
tv-resolution). You don't send any video output to nvtvd. nvtv was
design to work with X if I understand it correct.

So nvtv-out should be a special case of X-output in fullscreen...

Is anyone planning to follow up on this?  If not, I'm going to close
the bug.
